808: Recapture the outpost and avenge our comrades.
"In a few days, it will be our red-blue simulated combat. After the red-blue simulated combat ends, we'll go back to the Capital City."
Lu Jing said to his wife.
Xiao Niannian nodded.
After the red-blue simulated combat, the previous arrangement was for them to go to the Tibetan Area for training!
Many new training facilities had been built in the Tibetan Area this year. However, they definitely wouldn't be going to the Tibetan Area now.
"We might go to Gui Province, or perhaps Yun Province..."
Hearing Lu Jing say this, Xiao Niannian nodded.
Anywhere is fine.
However, after they return, they will definitely have missions to carry out.
She just didn't know what kind of missions they would be.
Xiao Niannian recalled Heixiazi Island. A few years ago, there had been several minor conflicts there. In recent years, conflicts still arose from time to time, but the casualties were not significant.
In the evening, Xiao Niannian and her Team Members were sleeping soundly when they heard the wake-up whistle.
"Shhh..."
The whistle was very urgent.
Xiao Niannian sprang up instantly, got dressed, and ran outside.
At a time like this, who was blowing the whistle?
The assembly today hadn't been discussed with them. Could it be that the Captains and Political Commissars wanted to conduct a surprise drill?
Xiao Niannian, Lu Jing, and the others were the first to arrive.
They exchanged glances, knowing that neither of them had received a notification.
So, this was an order from the Captains.
Xiao Niannian looked not far away and saw Captain Chen and Political Commissar Li with solemn expressions.
"comrades, we just received a request. An outpost about fifty li from here has been occupied by the people of Mao Xiong. Our Soldiers were ambushed, captured, and abused by them... Currently, Mao Xiong has a regiment of troops there... Now, you are needed to rescue them and retake the outpost..."
Xiao Niannian's expression also became very serious upon hearing Captain Chen's words.
So that's what happened. Now, the Soldiers at an outpost were ambushed, captured, and abused by the people of Mao Xiong.
Hearing Captain Chen's words, the Team Members were furious.
"How despicable!"
"Mao Xiong is going too far!"
"They are provoking us!"
"Recapture the outpost, avenge our comrades-in-arms!"
Someone shouted loudly, and the other Team Members, hearing this, also began to shout loudly.
"Recapture the outpost, avenge our comrades-in-arms!"
"Captain, I request to fight!"
"Captain, pick me!"
Suddenly, many Team Members shouted loudly.
Captain Chen and Political Commissar Li looked at the angry Team Members, exchanged glances, and spoke.
"Now we need to send a team of about fifty people to rescue them first. The others will remain here on standby..."
They discussed it and decided to first send fifty Special Forces Soldiers for the rescue, to bring the people back. The Division Headquarters would also send people up.
Captain Chen looked at Lu Jing and Qiao Yan and the others.
"Lu Jing, Qiao Yan, each of you will lead twenty-five people. Qiao Yan, you are familiar with this area, so be extra careful..."
Hearing Captain Chen's words, Lu Jing and Qiao Yan immediately assented.
"Yes, sir."
Captain Niu looked at Lu Jing and Qiao Yan and said.
"Little Qiao, listen to Little Lu for the command this time."
"Yes, sir."
Qiao Yan felt uncomfortable hearing this, but Captain Niu and the others had spoken, so he couldn't disobey military orders.
Lu Jing walked towards Instructor Qin.
"Old Qin, you're in charge of the Production Brigade's affairs. Captain Xiao, He Rui, Shen Mo, Fang Qiang..."
Lu Jing called out more than twenty names.
"Here."
Each time a name was called, the Team Members immediately responded.
Meng Ning, Gao Yao, Lin Shi, and others stepped forward.
"Captain Lu, please choose us, we want to participate."
"Captain Lu, I request to participate."
Shen Yan also said loudly.
"Captain Lu, pick me, I guarantee to complete the mission."
Hearing their words, Lu Jing refused.
"You all wait for notification in the Production Brigade. This time, only these twenty-five people will be chosen..."
Hearing Captain Lu's words, Shen Yan and the others were very disappointed. The other Team Members also looked at Captain Lu and the others with anticipation. They wanted to go to the battlefield, to rescue their comrades-in-arms.
Xiao Niannian looked at the Team Members of the Womens Team, each of them looking at her, all expressing the same attitude.
But this time, she wouldn't take them. This was war, a rescue mission. For ordinary rescue missions, she would take the Womens Team Members. But this mission was extremely difficult.
The opponents were the people of Mao Xiong, and currently, there was only one regiment of Mao Xiong's people there.
The higher-ups' intention now was to maintain control and not let the situation escalate. The current situation was complex; if it escalated and our side fought with Mao Xiong, the USA and Japan would secretly get involved.
The small island across the sea and some others would also seize the opportunity to act. By then, the country would be in big trouble.
So, they could only rescue these comrades-in-arms first, and then follow the arrangements from above.
Soon, the Team Members received their guns, bullets, and some other items.
Captain Chen looked at Lu Jing and Xiao Niannian and instructed them.
"You must be careful and cautious. However many people go out, you must bring back that many people... Understand?"
"Understood."
"We will definitely bring back as many people as we take out..."
Hearing Lu Jing and Xiao Niannian's assurance, Captain Chen's expression softened slightly.
Xiao Niannian got into the military truck, and the Team Members followed suit.
Xiao Niannian looked at her watch. It was over fifty kilometers from here to there, but the roads were difficult now, so even driving there would take more than two hours.
The situation there was still unclear.
The outpost was occupied; were the Soldiers inside still alive?
Xiao Niannian touched the gun in her hand, her eyes filled with a stronger killing intent. This time, they must rescue all the Team Members from that outpost.
The current information was that the outpost had over fifty people. Because the location was somewhat remote and in the mountains, supplies were delivered once every ten days.
After arriving, they would still need to walk several kilometers of mountain road. Don't underestimate these few kilometers of mountain road; it would also take several hours.
And there, Mao Xiong's Soldiers would occasionally come to provoke. There had been small-scale skirmishes before, but a large conflict like today was the first time.
It was raining heavily again today, and the roads were icy. Although the car tires were fitted with anti-skid chains, driving was still very slow.
More than two hours later, they finally reached the foot of the mountain.
Xiao Niannian and the Team Members shouldered their packs, carried their guns, and got out of the car.
"Excuse me, are you Comrade Lu and Comrade Qiao?"
A male comrade in his thirties led some Soldiers forward.
"I am Battalion Commander Yu of the First Regiment, Second Battalion. Regiment Commander Liu sent me to meet you..."
Lu Jing and Qiao Yan led their people in a military salute, and Lu Jing spoke.
"I am Lu Jing. Please lead the way and tell us about the current situation at the outpost on the way..."
"Yes, sir."
Battalion Commander Yu immediately began to explain the current situation at the outpost.
